Your OKR template

This OKR aims to increase the sprint story points burnt down, signaling an improvement in development velocity. The primary objective is to raise the burnt down story points by 15% by the end of the next sprint. This goal's success will be achieved through initiatives such as improved task prioritization, implementing additional agile practices, and extending working hours.

The second part of the objective deals with reducing blocker incidents by 30% to boost sprint velocity. By minimizing these incidents, the team can more effectively make progress on their tasks. This reduction will be facilitated by rigorous pre-testing for bug identification and avoidance, increasing training for necessary skill advancements, and enhancing communication to promote issue transparency.

The final part of the OKR is focused on advancing the team's understanding of Agile by training all members in advanced Scrum techniques. A proficient Agile team is an efficient one, so investing in this training will positively impact the burnt down story points. Funding for the training must be secured and advanced Scrum training providers identified while scheduling sessions to meet the targets.

Overall, this OKR emphasizes efficiency in task completion, reduction in blocker incidents, and a thorough knowledge of advanced Scrum techniques for better Agile implementation. By accomplishing clear initiatives, this OKR aims to enhance the sprint performance and following Agile principles more effectively.
